Introduction to UML
o UML
(Unified
Modeling
Language)
is
a
graphical
language used for designing and documenting OOP
software.
o UML is a software design tools that can be used within
the context of any OOP (Object-Oriented programming)
language.

UML
o Pseudocode is a way of representing a program in a
linear and algebraic manner.
 It simplifies design by eliminating the details of
programming language syntax.
o Graphical representation systems for program design
have also been used:
 Flowcharts and structure diagrams for example.
o Unified
Modeling
Language
(UML)
is
yet
another
graphical representation formalism.
 UML is designed to reflect and be used with the OOP
philosophy.

Types of UML Diagrams
• Use Case Diagram
• Class Diagram
• Sequence Diagram
• Collaboration Diagram
• State Diagram

Classes
•A class is simply represented as a box with the name of the class inside
– The diagram may also show the attributes and operations
– The complete signature of an operation is:
operationName(parameterName: parameterType …): returnType
Rectangle

getArea
resize

height: int
width: int

UML Class Diagram
o A class diagram is divided up into three sections:
1.The top section contains the class name.
2.The middle section contains the data specification
for the class (attributes).
3.The bottom section contains the actions or methods
of the class (operations).

Class Names
ClassName
attributes
operations
The name of the class is the only
required
tag
in
the
graphical
representation of a class.
It always
appears in the top-most compartment.

Class Attributes (Cont’d)
Attributes are usually listed in the form:
attributeName : Type
Person
+ name
# address
# birthdate
/ age
- ssn
: String
: Address
: Date
: Date
: Id
Attributes can be:
+ public
# protected
- private
/ derived
A derived attribute is one that can be
computed from other attributes. For
example, a Person’s age can be
computed from his birth date.
/ age : Date

Class Operations
Operations describe the class behavior
Person
name
address
birthdate
ssn
: String
: Address
: Date
: Id
eat
sleep
work
play
and appear in the third compartment.
o Each method in a UML diagram is
indicated
by
the
name
of
the
method, followed by its parameter
list, a colon (:), and its returned
type.

UML Class Diagram
o A class diagram need not give a complete description of
the class.
o If a given analysis does not require that all the class
members be represented, then those members are
not listed in the class diagram.
o Missing members are indicated with an ellipsis
(three dots).

Inheritance Diagrams (Generalization)
o An inheritance diagram shows the relationship between
a base class and its derived class(es).
 Normally, only as much of the class diagram is
shown as is needed.
 Note that each derived class may serve as the base
class of its derived class(es).
o Each base class is drawn above its derived class(es)
 An upward pointing arrow is drawn between them to
indicate the inheritance relationship.

Inheritance Diagrams
o The arrows also help in locating method definitions.
o To look for a method definition for a class:
 Examine the class definition first.
 If the method is not found, the path of connecting
arrows will show the order and direction in which to
search.
 Examine the parent
connecting arrow.

 If the method is still not found, then examine this
parent's parent class indicated by the connecting
arrow.
 Continue until the method is found, or until the top
base class is reached.

Example
• Consider the class named Book that contains:
–
–
–
–
–
A private String variable called title;
A private integer variable called nbpages;
A public double variable called price ;
Two public methods SetTitle() and SetNbpages();
Two public methods getTitle() and getNbpages();
• Class TextBook is a derived class from the class Book. It
contains:
– A protected integer variable called gradeLevel;
– A public method toString() that returns a description of a
textBook;
– A public method PriceAfterDiscount() that returns the price of a
book after applying a discount of 10%.
• Question: Establish the UML diagram for this problem.
